Waterbeds are equipped with integrated heaters. Thus, on the one hand, they provide the necessary heat. On the other hand, this heat ensures that sweat evaporates. However, due to the integrated heaters, waterbeds also give off heat to the room. This is especially the case when it is cool in the bedroom.
The Saarland Consumer Center advises using an electricity meter to measure how much electricity the waterbed requires for a week in the winter. If necessary, consumers can talk to one of their energy consultants about how to classify the electricity consumption.
The amount of electricity costs depends, among other things, on the type of heating, size, insulation and also the price of electricity in the region. According to various sources, it can range from about 70 to 280 euros per year. If you would like to know more about the topic, you can call the free nationwide hotline of the consumer advice center at 0800 809 802 400.
